This sort of chaos is exactly why I don't go abroad for me hol's, what with the threat of a certain bunch of religious zelots either going bang and or trying to take control of the plane and then fly it and me into the nearest nuclear reactor or high level target it's just to much trouble!. :roll:

Bloody Icelanders are always messing about with other people, some of you might remember the Cod Wars when they wouldn't allow UK fishing boats to net cod, recently they took billions of UK pounds into their banks which collapsed and they won't pay it back for years, now they are polluting our airspace, buggers the lot of them, I will never shop at Iceland again, nor go there on holiday, not that I ever intended to.
And what about their names eh? really weird, like who would name a girl Bjork, sounds like you are about to cough up something unpleasant and green :shock: no wonder she is a crap singer!

I should have put this on the Grump thread

When that volcano gets serious the whole place will disappear into the atmosphere. They can't steal our cod if they are part of an eruption now can they? The place is already melting rapidly, one big bang and it's cod suppers all round.

Dell boy u silly bugger!.

Hi All

Haven't been on much lately but drop in to read everyone's news often.

My world has been very dark lately with arthur and horrible family crisis. The bright light was going away for a week next Tuesday with two of my children but the ashe may be a good friend of arthur's (sorry about the tennis pun, was a fan of the skill of Arthur Ashe - ha, shows my age).

Norwich airport is still closed today and we only have 4 days left before we are due to go to Toronto, via Amsterdam (also shut).

Please everyone who can, cross fingers and toes for me. I so need to escape right now! Worse, the insurance companies are saying they will declare this "an act of God" and not pay out! That would be the final straw.

So sorry to see you have been having such a bad time lately.
My fingers and toes crossed for you big time. ((( ))) I really hope it clears so you can get your much needed holiday.
take care
Chris

Many thanks, Chris.

I feel a bit at the end of my tether and after a week or two of total agonising about it, with friends and medics encouraging me to go when I didn't feel I had the strength to, I was finally beginning to almost look forward to it.

How different my life has been in the last 4 weeks. Everything that was sure is now gone and the future is so uncertain for the kids and I.

All (((((()))))) welcome right now!

Oh, you do sound as if you have it all on your plate right now without the weather getting in on the act, too!

I hope it clears quickly and that you are able to take your much-needed holiday.

hi this ash is really causing problems no planes to anywhere so far, not even where i live, only other way is trains, bus, and ferry,

i bet the airlines are loosing money i bet there will be alot of people who will be glad when everything gets back to normal,
and even when they do get home, just shows how these things can really foul things up

valval
